Chapter 55 Interrogation

Changsun Wuji ignored Li Haochen, and Li Haochen was too lazy to pay attention to him, but shouted to the prison chief that he was hungry and wanted to eat. He also said that the prison chief abused the prisoner and would definitely go to the emperor to study his book in the future.

The prisoner knew that the two were personally inquired by the emperor, so he naturally did not dare to neglect it. Moreover, he also knew that Li Haochen was sent to the prison by King Li Yuanji of Qi and told him to take good care of him.

The prison head muttered, "I just finished my meal and shouted that I was hungry. I don't know if it was a pig. Then I reluctantly took the remaining rice for the night and a few vegetables that had passed the water and handed it to Li Haochen. I promised to eat it, don't yell after eating, I still have to take a nap." Although Li Yuanji asked the prison head to take care of Li Haochen, the prison head was Li Yuanji's retainer, with a arrogant heart and a higher eye than the top. Naturally, he would not really take Li Haochen seriously, so although he did not dare to neglect, he was also very reluctant to complain.

The prison head thought that this was over and that he could take a nap with peace of mind, Li Haochen shouted again: "Master! Master! Get out of here!"

The prison head was completely angry this time, and the whip in his hand grabbed Li Haochen's hand, shaking his hand vigorously, and then plucked: "Are you over? Don't forget your identity! You are a prisoner, this is not your family! I am the prison head, not your servant!"

When Li Haochen heard this, he was not moved by the prison head's scolding at all. Instead, he said tit-for-tat: "Master, are you going to murder me? Who sent you here? You put such a big wooden stick in the bowl, are you going to stab me to death?" Li Haochen said as he held a wooden stick in his hand about the size of a coin. Then he continued: "Come here and take a look!"

When the prisoner heard that there were wooden sticks in the meal, and Li Haochen said that he wanted to murder him, the prisoner became honest. If Li Haochen really had a few things in prison, even if Li Yuanji could let him go, it would probably be that the emperor who valued the prisoner so much would not let him go. He was no longer arrogant and hurried forward to take the wooden stick in Li Haochen's hand.

After seeing the prison head take the wooden stick, Li Haochen kicked over his job and said angrily: "Get out of here. I don't want to see you again until you can't give me a reasonable explanation!"

The prison head looked at the wooden stick carefully, but did not speak, but left quietly.

Changsun Wuji, who was on the prison side, sneered: "I deserve it! I didn't kill you, a fat man, you will be lucky!"

Li Haochen ignored Changsun Wuji's sarcasm and walked back to the bed, covered his head and went to sleep.

The next morning, the minister of Dali Temple was promoted to the presiding of the chief minister of Sun Wuji. Before leaving, Changsun Wuji left Li Haochen with a look of hatred. About half an hour passed, and news came from Dali Temple that he wanted to interrogate Li Haochen.

Li Haochen followed the yamen runners to the main hall of Dali Temple. He saw that the Dali Temple Minister was a middle-aged man. Li Haochen did not know this person. He was not famous in history. He only knew that the Dali Temple Minister was surnamed Yang.

After Li Haochen arrived at the lobby of Dali Temple, the minister of Dali Temple began to ask: "Li Haochen, Changsun Wuji said that you had fled and injured him. There are witnesses who can testify. I wonder if there is any such incident? Do you know the second son?"

Li Haochen shook his head and said, "Sir, I know some two sons, and I have never been out of the prison of Dali Temple. You should know this."

The Dali Temple Minister is the only one who knows the whole story. He is also in a difficult position now and is also blaming Li Haochen for being unsuccessful in his work and leaving his tail behind.

After hearing Li Haochen's words, the Dali Temple Minister nodded and said, "Since you two have different opinions, it is difficult for me to judge which one is right or wrong. According to the law of this dynasty, since a person has been proposed, he must announce the person's witness to the court to prove it. Do you have any objections to this?"

Li Haochen nodded and said, "According to the law, according to the wishes of the adults, I have no objection!"

The Dali Temple Minister saw Li Haochen's words so firm, and suddenly felt relieved, and then said, "The second son of the successor, testify in the lobby, let's take a break, wait until the witness arrives, and then go to the trial! Withdraw!" After the Dali Temple Minister finished speaking, the two were taken back to the prison.

Changsun Wuji looked at Li Haochen with a calm face and said with some confusion: "I'm very curious. The second son was entrusted to testify in court. You will definitely die. Why can you still be so calm at this moment? Are you really not crying without seeing the coffin, and not giving up until the Yellow River? Or do you have any support?"

Li Haochen smiled at Changsun Wuji and said, "Sir Changsun, I don't know why you hate me so much. I have framed me several times. I really don't know the second son you said, and I don't know what you said? I did nothing! Why am I afraid?"

Li Haochen was planning to pretend to be stupid. He had no choice but to watch too many police and gangster movies in his previous life. He was always afraid that others would record them and leave evidence, so he never admitted it.

In fact, there was no recording equipment in the Tang Dynasty more than 1,800 years ago. However, Li Haochen believed that being careful in making the ten thousand-year-old ship could not leave any complaints everywhere. I really don’t know when it would be revealed that it would make him doomed.

Changsun Wuji looked at Li Haochen as he was still pretending to be stupid, and snorted coldly, "So keep pretending, I see when you can last! Hum!" As he said that, he hummed hard again. Then he stopped looking at Li Haochen, because Li Haochen looked indifferent, which really made him feel good about himself. Changsun Wuji, who thought the strategy was seamless, was very hurt.

Li Haochen ignored Changsun Wuji's threatening words, but quietly looked at the top of the prison, as if something on the roof was particularly attractive to him.

Time passed by minute by minute. Li Haochen knew that success or failure would be here. If it succeeds, Changsun Wuji would die. Li Shimin's arm was cut off. If it was defeated, he would be doomed. Even if he did not die, he would have a future.

About an hour passed, the Dali Temple Minister interrogated the two again. This time, the Dali Temple Minister asked with a dark face: "Changsun Wuji, the second son you mentioned is dead, and he left a suicide note!"

Changsun Wuji was shocked when he heard this. He looked at Li Haochen coldly and said angrily: "Sir, it must be that Li Haochen is afraid that the witness will come to the court to testify, so he asked his accomplice to kill the witness. He also asked the adult to use a great punishment and let him call out who the accomplice is!"

The Dali Temple Minister snorted coldly and said, "Changsun Wuji, you are enough! The second son committed suicide. The coroner had experienced the corpse, so there was no doubt. At the same time, you can take a look at this suicide note!"

Changsun Wuji took the suicide note and looked at the handwriting on it, which was written by someone who had not been to school for a few days. There were even many typos on it, which read: "There is a big man who gave me money and asked me to promote Li Haochen's contribution to the Tang Dynasty, but the emperor wanted to kill him. Li Haochen could not kill him, so I helped him do it, and he gave me a gold ingot. Later, he gave me a lot of gold ingots and asked me to make fake certificates and testify against Li Haochen, saying that I had seen him commit crimes. But I don't know who Li Haochen is, and I have no grudges with him. I am pregnant with my good looks and I dare not do this thing that damages my good deeds, but I know that the big man will definitely not let our family go. I hope I can exchange my life for the peace of my family. I have not moved the money of the big man, and it is all here."

After reading the suicide note, Changsun Wuji collapsed on the ground and thought to himself.

The Dali Temple Minister shouted sternly: "Changsun Wuji, I have ordered someone to compare the words written by the second son before. The handwriting was indeed written by the second son himself. At the same time, I also found many gold ingots with the mark of your house next to his suicide note. What else do you have to say to you?"

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, some large families would stamp their own family marks on gold and silver.

Li Haochen was also surprised because he only wrote the firewood to the prisoner: "Give it to King Qi, don't leave it, look for Lu Tong!" As for when Li Haochen wrote it, no one except him knew. Li Haochen thought that if the people outside had not hid the second son or killed him, it would be possible. But he never expected that the people outside could do this. At this moment, the suicide note of the second son was evidenced, and Changsun Wuji could be confirmed without the confession of Changsun Wuji!
